It wasn't for me. I couldn't imagine myself floating on clouds of strawberry colored mist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26950 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:31:40 +0000 MH.Abroad 26950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally plan to! *going to read ohapostrophe's birth story...* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26892 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 09:43:13 +0000 ohapostrophe 26892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: I definitely found that to be true. I fell asleep more often than not! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26885 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 09:37:07 +0000 mrsjazz 26885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ohapostrophe: I recently received my Hypnobabies self-study and I remember reading something about it being okay if you fall asleep because it's getting through to your subconscious. I can't wait to start! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26879 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 09:24:43 +0000 ohapostrophe 26879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Although I did hypnobabies and there are some subtle differences apparently. I also fell asleep a TON when I listened to the tracks, and I actually didn't get through all of them. BUT once I was in labor and listening to the labor track it didn't seem to matter. It helped me so much and I don't think I could have achieved my goal of an unmedicated labor without it. If you want more info I'd be happy to help, or if you want to read my labor story (warning:long) there is a link to my blog in my profile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26713 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:14:32 +0000 runsyellowlites 26713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend of mine did with both of her births! And she loved both of her homebirths very much!</p> <p>I'm getting the tapes to listen to from my midwife tomorrow.... see how that goes!</p> <p>I'm also probably going to take the Bradley classes, figure getting "too relaxed" through labor isn't really possible... so I thought having all the techniques I could get would be good. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26707 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:10:29 +0000 Mrs. D 26707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be interested in learning more about this too. I don't really want to spend money on books and taped to learn about it though, so hearing a successful, or even a semi-successful story would be enlightening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26646 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 22:13:56 +0000 Green Thumb 26646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know ohapostrophe did, maybe she can give you some insight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-try-hypnobirthing#post-26579 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 21:20:23 +0000 miranlee 26579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone tried hypnobirthing? I just started listening to the cds, but keep falling asleep! Would love to hear success stories using this method. Also, i didnt purchase the book, so would love to hear what you may have done in addition to listening to the cds to prepare. </p>
